Match Commentary

94'
The whistle has gone on a game short on quality but then high on anger in the Gervinho incident that followed Joey Barton being stamped on by Alex Song. That was the key moment in a game short on quality, and Arsenal already look short of the qualities they need to challenge. Newcastle were lacking, but Joey Barton blotted their copybook for getting involved. Gervinho was silly but can consider himself unfortunate.
94'
Van Persie tries from distance. It is wide and weak.
93'
Walcott runs off the end of the pitch in a style that is all his own. Arsenal bereft of ideas again.
